Easy Oatmeal Crackers Gluten Free And Vegan Food

EASY GLUTEN-FREE CRACKERS (DAIRY-FREE, VEGAN)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400F (200C) and line a large baking sheet with a silpat or parchment paper.
• Combine flour, salt, olive oil, and 1/4 cup of water in a mixing bowl and mix well until you get a homogeneous dough. (If dough is too dry, add a little extra water at a time until you get a smooth and pliable dough that isn't sticky. If dough is too wet, sprinkle a bit more of gluten-free flour and mix until the dough is no longer sticky.)
• Using a rolling pin, roll the dough between two pieces of parchment paper until it's very thin (roughly 1/8-inch thick). Make sure to maintain the same thickness throughout.
• Remove the top piece of parchment paper and slice dough into small 1.5-inch squares.
• Separate the cut-out dough squares and transfer them to the prepared baking sheet, placing them in a single layer at least 2 inches apart.
• Use a fork to prick 2 lines of holes on the surface of each square of dough.
• Brush each square with olive oil and sprinkle a little salt over.
• Bake crackers until they are crispy and golden brown (approximately 15 to 20 minutes), rotating the sheets halfway through.
• Allow crackers to cool completely on the baking sheet before serving or storing.

EASY OATMEAL CRACKERS (GLUTEN FREE AND VEGAN).

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• Grind the gluten free oats in a food processor until they become a fairly fine flour.
• Pour the oat flour, gluten free flour, garlic powder, and salt in a bowl.
• Add the melted vegan buttery spread, honey or agave, and 1/4 cup water. Stir. Drizzle in more water while stirring until the dough forms a ball. The dough should not be too wet.
• Place the dough on a sheet of parchment paper and cover with a sheet of waxed paper. Roll the dough out until it is quite thin, about 1/8 inch thick. Try to roll the dough as evenly as possible.*
• Remove the waxed paper and place the dough on the parchment paper on the cookie sheet. Cut the dough into squares with a knife, but do not separate. Sprinkle a little water on top and smooth it over the dough.
• Sprinkle sea salt flakes on top.
• Bake at 400 degrees for 13-16 minutes, until golden brown and crisp, rotating the sheet once during the baking time.
• Let cool before breaking into squares.

AMANDA'S GLUTEN FREE (VEGAN) CRACKERS

Steps:

• 1.Preheat oven to 350F and line a baking sheet with parchment. In a high-speed blender or processor, grind almonds into a flour. Do not over process or almonds will release oils. Sift flour before using to remove larger pieces. OR you can use store-bought almond flour.
• 2. In a large bowl, mix together the dry ingredients. Add wet ingredients and mix well with spoon. Knead dough with hands until it comes together. Shape into a ball.
• 3. Place ball of dough on parchment paper or a non-stick mat. Roll out dough until it's about 1/8 inch thick, or as thin as you can get it without ripping. With a pastry wheel or pizza slicer, slice into crackers.
• 4. Bake at 350F for 18-20 minutes until slightly golden in colour. 18 minutes is a softer cracker vs 20 minutes crispier.
• 5. Cool on baking sheet for 10 minutes Store in air-tight container once fully cool.
• *Note: Other flours might work in substitution for brown rice flour and almond flour, although keep in mind the flavour will change.
• *Note: tweak the spices to your liking!
